Is Shapen just soft?

For the Lebby / Shapen combo to work out at least one of them needed to be really good at their trade .

How many TD drives did Shapen lead today? How many did Kamario lead?

We don’t have the OL to run the Relf offense. And sure, Kamario missed several throws. But his ability to run/scramble and to stand in the pocket instead of crumbling and taking a sack on an arm tackle really change the offense.

On that note, how many times was Kamario sacked today?
I really can’t understand why this isn’t more obvious to some. Congrats to Shapen for the nice comeback he led last week, but let’s take a Quick Look at the QB ratings from both games.

WTF are we even doing at this point?

Any attempt to play Taylor this year in order to win games is silly. You said yourself we don’t have the line to run the Relf Coast. We also don’t have the coach. So why do folks keep wanting us to do it? If Taylor can’t run the Lebby offense, then what are we talking about.

We seem to always want our (offensive) coaches to change, uh, their offense. Why are we hiring these guys then? Let’s just hire some MS high school coach and run the ball.
Kamario ran Lebby’s offense better than Shapen today.

This is the problem with you. You’re so negative over everything. Let KT play, get his snaps against a softened Missouri, and OM. Let him get snaps. TD or not, let him get coordinated, let him get his feet under him. You folks thinking he doesn’t need game time play …, your the problem. And of course Goats gonna talk **** bc that’s all this 17r does. And just FYI, why do you post??? You ***** and moan, and complain about anything.

Gotta go with One on this one! If you can’t see why Shapen needs to go, in your own words …. “You can’t be helped”
Yeah I'm not sure he realizes this isn't the Big 12 anymore. Dump the ball and play the next play, you aren't ready to run in the SEC.

But it's the offensive line we have! Porkchop Womack isn't walking in the door to help!
Granted, the OLine is sub-par; however, you have a freak freshman at QB. He has burnt his eligibility. Let this kid learn … he has produced! Or let a 5yr Sr keep playing and do nothing for States future! Take your pick!

I agree I was saying the argument that Shapen is the best QB on the roster but not behind this line is fools gold!

Some of y'all make it so obvious you never played any real football (but I bet you can blow the **** outta that clarinet).

And if you can't clearly see why Shapen starts over Kamario at this point, you can't be helped.
C’mon. Don’t do that. That’s a weak cop out.

Explain it to us:
Why should Shapen start over Taylor?

He may or may not be soft, but he’s stubborn as 17. No reason in the world for him to have kept it 9 times yesterday (I realize some of those were sacks, but the point stands)

I agree with you dipshit. If Taylor is the guy for next year, I’m fine playing him for that reason.

But he’s not the best option for winning in 2025 you no-reading-comprehension-having mother 17er.

Better passer than Taylor but Taylor better runner. He is a competitor so I have no problem with that. Taylor doesn't pass as well but is a dangerous runner and is somewhat off the mark on passes sometimes 10 ft. Problem is we need a dangerous runner who can pass effectively and we would have picked up maybe 2 games. Shapen has taken some licks, that blindside hit was for real.

Shapen isn't soft. Problem is he's tougher than smart (to a fault). He stands too long in the pocket, refuses to throw the ball away, and isn't keen on running out of bounds.

Maybe avoid running when there are multiple NFL players playing defense that will hit you and also knock the ball out

And the great thing about Goat …. We could finish 50-13 in baseball. The POS gonna find something to ***** about! I get it, but STOP! If I gave you the reigns for the QB …. Why wouldn’t KT start?? Shapen has shown, and in-shown why he needs to go. Why let him start the next 2 games? What’s that going to prove/show??

Let KT get an SEC road game. Let him get the Egg Bowl. What is keeping Shapen at the helm doing??? Get bumps now .. and let this kid grow! Let this guy get every snap he can … NOW

watching KT miss a 30 yd pass by 20yds didn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling about where he's at now. he isn't the starter for a reason. i do not know what type of offense he ran in HS but Ms isn't known for Qb's who throw for a lot of yards.

Shapen has had his head bashed in a dozen times this year and he's still giving it his best. He's not soft.
